The place to be? Central Coast!!
On Sunday, December 27, David & Morri, Jane & Bill, Dick, Taylor and I had 4 nights in a beautiful four bedroom home we rented in Cayucos. David drove Poopa and Jane in their car, Dick and Taylor drove in our car and Morri and I drove in her car with Gabby. We deposited Gabby at the Carlstrom's and continued on to meet up with the others.
First night was dinner at the Sea Shanty - of course - followed by an evening playing Dominoes! Much fun and excitement was had!! Since then, a TWO game minimum each day was played. We got HOOKED!! Even had Jane playing!!
The next morning Taylor, Dick and I went to Hearst Castle while Morri and David met up with Piper and saw a movie. Poopa hasn't been feeling well and had a horrible backache, causing him to sleep sitting in a chair for the past week!!
We've always done Tour #1 at the castle but decided to change it up and see Tour #2. I have to say, we all feel more educated now with both tours under our belts. The weather called for rain but not a drop came down! WHEW!
Taylor is such a trooper too. He really enjoys learning about new things and is such a good boy. It is a delight to travel with him.
We looooooove that pool!!!
Really is a treat to see!
The sunset for this night.
Each morning Dick and I were able to go on a nice 4 mile run. On Wednesday, we grabbed Taylor and had some basketball practice. We wanted to use the public tennis courts too but they were busy. I played against a wall while the boys practiced.
Doing the basics

Heavenly
On Thursday Taylor and I drove one car while Dick drove his parents home in their car. David and Morri left on Tuesday morning.
I have to say, this really was a nice vacation. Our house was very comfortable, the weather was perfect and it was very relaxing. Having the time to spend with Dick's parents with Taylor is very special and I know a memory that will last his lifetime. There were many laughs and quality time spent as a family.
Poopa has been complaining about his back hurting and has been doing a lot of sitting with a heating pad. It hurts him to lay down so he has even been sleeping in a chair! Poor guy! Much needed prayers for him. Better pray for Jane too for having to do everything - even MORE so than the usual - for him. She always says, "Growing old is not for the weak."
Next stop Visalia!
